 5. Copy the map to user's home directory under: `~/.navit/map/`.
 
-6. Rename the map file to `et_default.bin`.
+Note: The current Navit configuration specifies the map directory using
+      a wildcard (i.e. ~/.navit/map/*.bin). As such, any valid Navit map

+## Loading Larger Maps (OSM)
+
+If you have the storage and want larger maps, it is suggested that you 
+use the OpenStreetMap (OSM) extracts from http://download.geofabrik.de/.
+
+Here's the approach used for loading a map for the Southwest region in
+the US.
+
+1. Visit [North America](http://download.geofabrik.de/north-america.html).
+
+2. Download the "US West" [.osm.bz2](http://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/us-west-latest.osm.bz2)
+   file.
+
+3. Upload `us-west-latest.osm.bz2` to your `~/.navit/maps` directory.
+
+4. Convert the map to a format that Navit can understand. This will take several hours.
+
+```
+$ cd ~/.navit/maps
+$ time bzcat us-west-latest.osm.bz2 | maptool -6 us-west-latest-osm.bin
+```
